5 minute updates on the latest Trump actions by Prof Christina Pagel

What you missed this week: elections under attack, and Trump corruption

I decided to focus on just two main stories this week that I think have been under-reported: * How Republicans are trying to secure the midterms despite deep unpopularity - gerrymandering, mail ballot restrictions, manufactured fraud claims, and an FBI raid on a voter registration group. * A series of corruption stories: a conflict of interest over a herbal supplement, a White House crypto payout, a 96% breach of pardon guidelines, and two stories about loyalty to Trump that go beyond self-enrichment.

10 days behind the headlines in Trump's America:

This week’s video covers four areas: * attacks on civil rights and institutions, where the pattern of firing professionals and installing loyalists continues; * immigration and detention, where conditions and oversight are both getting worse; * science and the environment; * press freedom, which is under attack from outside and from within. I end on something a little different — what Trump chose to post on the 82nd anniversary of D-Day.

Last two weeks of Trump: science gutted, enemies attacked, and Cuba in the crosshairs

It's been two weeks since my last video as I’ve been travelling a lot, and so this one covers a lot of ground. Even then, so much has happened behind the headlines that I had to do lots of editing! In this video I cover: * Science: attacks on vaccines, drinking water, and research funding. * Immigration: the human cost of mass deportation, who gets in and who doesn't, and conditions inside detention. * Suppressing dissent: Republican primaries, the justice system, and threats to Democratic cities. * Foreign aggression: Cuba, and the boat strikes that keep killing people.Subtitles available and all sources logged at TrumpActionTracker.info [https://www.trumpactiontracker.info/] Thanks for reading Making sense... of evidence, data, and the stories they tell!
